Dreaming.

/ dreamed we two were friends again
As in the days of yore,
And all life held of bliss or pain
Came back to me once more
Your laughter, ringing clear and sweet,
Your dark eyes tender beam,
The echo of your footballs fleet,
Were in that happy dream,
There was a summer In loves land,
The skies were skies of juno.
While roses blushed on either hand,
Beneath a golden moon;
And all the sadness of the years,
The frowns no smiles could blot,
With bitter doubts, the cruel fears,
We're in that dream forgot.
I dreamed we two were friends again,
And set my dream to song,
So you might listen to the strain
That sought you mid the throng
That you might list, perchance might slgh
Whilst idle tears would start,
To feel it with the last goodbye
OF one poor faithful heart.
/ dreamed we W were friends again
Alas | twas but a dream,
That fled when DER my window-pane
Awoke the first red beam,
Oh as il frightened on my sight,
And trembled Ger the floor,
1 whispered f'Vanish, happy life,
For / would dream once more.

IN oUR A
Another Move In the Now Famous swan
Bros Assignment Case.

Swan Bros, by their attorneys, Donzel-
man & Miller andG. W. Sewers, sought
70 have the So, 900 attachment levied on
their property by the First National bank
dissolved,
1t appears that the note in question is
secured by the residence property of the
firm. The case is tiled First Natioral
Bank vs.. Swan Bros. Willis Vsnde-
vanter and ex Chief Justice Lacey repre-
scented the banking institution. The
point sought to be made by the plaintiffs
was that the assignment made by the
great cattle firm to F.. w. Lafrentx and
A. II. Reel was fraudulent, and that they
had been guilty of other questionable acts
in making the transfer OF their property
to the ~assignees. The attendants and
witnesses were Alex. 81. Swan, Thomas
Swan, e. W. LatrentE. E. Nagle, W. R.
Swan, Joseph Frank and one or two 9th
ers. The steuographer occupied the
clerks desk, and the witnesses sat directly
in front of him when testifying. The
attorneys carried on a war of words, and
every point where there was q possible
opportunity for controversy was eagerly
embraced. The testimony elected was
embarrassing and facts were only brought
out after a great deal of questioning.
When Alex. II. Swan took the stand i,
was expected by the small audience pres.
ent that they would soon learn all the
details of the business of the collapsed
firm. The pioneer was very careful in
answering the pointed queries of Judge
Lacey. To any question as to
the depreciation in the value OF
the property OF the firm from Jan l to
the date of the assignment. he exhibited a
lack of knowledge that was exasperating
to the attorneys for the defense. After
continuing in the same unfruitfpl strain
until 9 o'clock, court adjourned to Mon
day morning.

ALL FOUND GUILTY.
District Court Prisoners Coming IN For
severe Doses.

After Attorneys T. M. Fisher and J
@ Thompson, for the defense in the
Ketchum perjury case, had spoken a few
minutes, and Prosecuting Attorney Stoll
had talked to the jury about the matter,
the twelve gentlemen retired. In forty
five minutes they returned a verdict to
the effect that the defendant was guilty
as charged.
The case Of the Territory VS.. Patrick,
charged with the larceny of a watch was
next called. Mr.. Patrick will play an
engagement in a resort where watches are
not very plentiful.
Brennan, who was accused of stealing
an overcoat belonging to John Chase
from the Office of the Inter Ocean hotel
last March, was the next candidate for
Judicial investigation. Williams, the col
ored man who was recently brought from
Salt Lake to testify in this case, gave
some damaging evidence against the pris
oner, from whom be purchased the coat
in question. The jury was out thirty
minutes and returned a verdict of guilty
of grand larceny as charged in the in
dictmeut.
At this juncture one of the finest legal
maneuvers ever executed before the bar
of this territory was successfully carried
out by Attorney A. G. Campbell, counsel
for LIE Roy, charged with horse stealing,
on which case the iurv failed to agree sew
eral days ago, Attorney Campbell held
that the court had acted without author
lty in discharglng the jury without con
sent of the defense, maintaining that this
procedure was equivalent to an acquittaL.
The point was we'll taken. aud LIE Roy
was discharged. This is the prisoner
who attempted to escape by saving the
bars of his cell some time since. He is
raid to be a desperate character.
Sam Tolson, a negro, plead guilty to
committing perjury in the case of Dennis

To the Z 'itor OF The LEADER.
Cheyenne, June 25.- | have served as
an active fireman in this city for seven
years and have never had occasion to com
plain OF any treatment at the hands of
citizens or officers of the FIRE department,
but now l have a kick to make and pro-
pose to make it plain if you will allow me
a sPall amount of space. Why is the
Alert hose team to be sent to Kearney,
Neb., without the consent Of the depart.
ment2 In the FIRST place there should
have been a test race among local teams
and the winner selected to make the trip.
Next, no team Of n-professional run
ners can cover 900 feet within a reasona-
BILE time, and the Alerts or any other team
from this town must not expect to contest
with volunteer 6remen in a race for a $500
purse with a $50 entrance fee. Some
argue that men going from this altitude
could easily run a long distance in ID low
er locality, but the difference would not be
observable in a stay of two or three dayp.
The money that has been raised for the
Alerts to make this trip should be divided
into purses and contested Tor by our own
teams on the Fourth. FIREMAN.

INTERCEPTED ny A BLAck CAT
why q Colored Man Made a wild Race
Last Evening.

Far reaching shadows were creeping
over the city last evening when = large
black cat of the Thomas variety emerged
from the vicinity of the Cheyenne car
rage works and moved sedately down the
street. About the same a well
dressed coiored man came out of a saloon
in that neighborhood and crossed the
same street. In the middle of the thor
oughfare the cat and the colored citizen
met. For his part the cat seemed dis
posed to pursue the even tenor of his
way, but the colored man, with a startled
cry, tried to intercept him. "Go way
there. you hoodoo," yelled the darkey, at
which the cat wildly scurried down the
street. The colored man Immediately
took the back trail and started at the top
OF his speed to make q wide 4eiour in the
opposite direction. He hit the road with
much freedom and frequency, tearing
along the bottoms at a wild rate and
finally emerging at the foot of Warren
avenue.
When subsequently met the colored
man was asked for an explanation of his
strange conduct.
Didn't you see that black cat2 Well,
if Id let him cross my path it would
have been a hoodoo on my luck the whole
night. That's the reason | went way
